Coming off an impressive 4-0 victory over Las Vegas Lights FC giving interim coach Rick Schantz his first victory in his second stint as Phoenix Rising FC coach, Phoenix Rising hosts winless Tulsa Roughnecks FC to end a short two-game homestand.

PHOENIX RISING FC LAST MATCH: It took a little while for the boys to get going, but a pair of goals from Jason Johnson, and additional goals from Joe Farrell and Solomon Asante gave Phoenix Rising FC the 4-0 win over Las Vegas Lights FC in the first-ever meeting between the clubs. It took Johnson 32 minutes to get his first goal of the night, and added his second on the 77th on a beautiful stop and cross to beat the Vegas goalkeeper. Johnson and Asante tied Chris Cortez for the team lead in goal scoring, as all three have six on the season, and Phoenix Rising remains the top scoring team in the league with 30 goals on the season.

TULSA REPORT: Tulsa lost 3-0 to St. Louis FC last Saturday at home. Two goals from USL Player of the Week Joey Calistri led St. Louis to three critical points.

Fabian Cerda is the man between the posts for Tulsa, conceding 23 goals in 12 matches played this season.
